Suspected encoding problem with umlauts

[nils-a]

Expected Behavior

The gist should be displayed, as it is in github - using the "correct" encoding

Current Behavior

is is not. Instead of an "ä" I am seeing "ä" - this is "normal" if UTF8 is treated as ASCII.

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

see the gist at: https://gist.github.com/nils-a/60e687103f4dafc853f7292c29780efa/#file-concatenateallwordfiles-vba (line 3) and compare to https://blog.nils-andresen.de/2011/03/word-dokumente-zusammenfassen.html

Context

I feel this is a minor problem, as not many people are using german umlauts in their code :-)

Your Environment
